It was a great workout...just tried to do everything... I'm not doing any grip until Saturday when I will bend...I need a few days off to recover... On a side note, does anyone know a good extensor lift I could incorporate? I need one for the contest anyways and it would be nice to train it! Thanks in advance!

dima700 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 All with the #1?How you comin on that HG250? It's getting close to your projected date! Umm...yeah My gripper strength is actually down right now because I've been concentrating on gym workouts and cardio. Therefore, the projected date will have to be postponed until further notice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravisRush Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 Today was awesome! Warmed up and did 2 of the BBB 1/4"X6" G2's Then I wrapped up a 60D, put my all into it and somehow got it in 16 seconds! About 5 minutes later, still having a bunch of energy, thought I would try my first 1/4" hex at 6". After 23 minutes, I'm proud to say that I came out the victor! Two PR's today and I'm feelin great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Holy cow, nice PR increase there Travis! That 1/4"X6" Hex is even with most of the normal 6" G5s that I've bent. Very nice job. Are you using DO and leather? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
